The First Open Source Contributor Summit

Contributing to open source can be challenging, especially when the first step for getting involved is unclear.

What is a contributor summit?

In partnership with Swimm, the Open Sauced community will hold a free and unique event focused on educating attendees about becoming contributors to open-source projects. The goal for this event is to bring the community together to get any context missing from the CONTRIBUTING.md files.

Learn directly from the maintainers of projects ways you can contribute during Hacktoberfest.

When is this happening?

This event kicks off with talks from maintainers and experts in the open-source on October 15th. It continues asynchronously via our community discord with workshops, Q&A, and discussions focused on getting folks involved in open source projects.

If this sounds like the event for you, RSVP on our Meetup page and come ready to learn.

Some of the projects represented during the event.

Snowpack

Snowpack is a lightning-fast frontend build tool, designed to leverage JavaScript's native module system (known as ESM). It is an alternative to heavier, more complex bundlers like webpack or Parcel in your development workflow.

  • PUT - Updates an existing resource
  • PATCH - Very similar to PUT but makes a partial update on a resource
  • DELETE - Deletes resource or related component
  • HEAD - Retrieve response headers identical to those of a GET request, but without the response body.
  • CONNECT - Establishes a tunnel to the server identified by the target resource
  • OPTIONS - Describe the communication options for the target resource
  • TRACE - Performs a message loop-back test along the path to the target resource
